We are honored to serve Bluffton as co-chairs for Extending Our Reach-The Campaign for Bluffton.

Our involvement has given us the opportunity to observe first-hand the vision, effective leadership and careful planning that have helped Bluffton grow, build outstanding facilities and expand educational offerings to meet 21st century needs. Bluffton also continues to uphold the traditions and values that set it apart when we were students and were both well-served in our preparation for success in business and in life.

Extending Our Reach-The Campaign for Bluffton will ensure that Bluffton’s mission continues to serve students and society today, tomorrow and for future generations.

Support for the Bluffton Fund, a new Health and Fitness Education Center and endowment growth are all crucial for this success. Therefore, we call not only on the loyal friends whose gifts have sustained Bluffton in the past, but on all who care deeply about Bluffton’s mission and values.

Please join us and Shirley and Helen in extending our reach together, by making your transforming gift to Extending Our Reach-The Campaign for Bluffton.
